Ning Qiushui was really relieved when they got on the unmanned bus again.
"We...we survived, right?"
Bearded Liu Chengfeng was breathing heavily, looking at the scary and slender female ghost in the distance through the car window. After entering the villa, he was shocked to realize that his legs were as soft as mud.
"Yes."
Ning Qiushui replied.
Then, neither of them spoke anymore.
Five days later, the bus originally carried seven people, but now only two were left.
Liu Chengfeng felt an inexplicable emptiness in his heart.
He didn't have much affection for other people, but seeing them die so miserably in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.
Because he was once so close to death.
If it weren't for Ning Qiushui, his fate would probably be the same as everyone else's.
Soon after the two got on the bus, the bus closed the door and drove slowly.
Soon, they passed through the rain curtain and entered the fog again.
The two of them fell asleep in the car in a daze.
When they woke up again, it was already early the next morning.
Ning Qiushui twisted her stiff body and looked outside the car.
They had actually arrived outside the small courtyard of the black villa.
"Hey, bearded guy, wake up."
Ning Qiu Shui scratched Liu Chengfeng, who suddenly became excited and shouted:
"Ghost! The ghost is coming!"
"Run!"
Ning Qiushui looked at Liu Chengfeng speechlessly, thinking that this guy was really miserable. Even if he was chased by ghosts in the Blood Gate mission, he had to work overtime in his dream.
After confirming that the person next to him was Ning Qiushui, Liu Chengfeng wiped the sweat from his face and gasped:
"Brother, you scared me to death!"
Ning Qiushui pointed to the small black courtyard outside and said:
"Get out of the car, we're here."
The two got out of the car one after another and walked into the black villa.
When they entered the hall again, they saw that there was only one person left.
It's that very handsome young man.
He was like a porcelain doll, with fair skin and rosy skin, and a petite and thin figure. If he didn't speak, almost no one would think that he was a boy.
"Why are you alone?"
Liu Chengfeng frowned.
After seeing the two of them come back alive from behind the Blood Gate, the young man's attitude was obviously much warmer than before.
"Uncle Yan has something to deal with. He has to go back to the previous world. Sister Xiaoxiao is going to take the newcomers through the blood gate. There is another one who is cooking in the kitchen."
Ning Qiushui's eyes flickered.
"Can we go back to the previous world?"
The young man fiddled with the coals in the stove.
"Why not?"
"If you can come here by bus, you can naturally go back by bus."
"well……"
As he spoke, he sighed and rubbed his long hair with his hands.
"I hate this part the most. Every time a new person comes, I have to explain a lot of things, which makes my mouth dry... What's even more disgusting is that sometimes I just tell them the rules today, and they won't be able to explain them the next week. Just die."
"But you finally came out of the Blood Gate alive. If you have anything to ask, please ask now."
The two looked at each other, and after thinking for a moment, Ning Qiushui said:
"What's going on with the Blood Gate and the Mist?"
The young man said:
"It's a curse."
"We are all cursed people. The Mist is a separate world, separate from the outside world. You can only enter and leave by taking the bus in the Mist World."
"The courtyard of the villa we are in is called a villa. There are many villas like ours in this misty world. In the same way, there are many blood gates."
"Every once in a while, we have to enter the terrifying world behind the blood gate to complete the tasks on the blood gate. While trying our best to survive, we must also collect puzzle pieces as much as possible."
"When there are 12 pieces of the puzzle, we can take the complete puzzle and take the bus to the end of the foggy world."
The boy said, pointing to a picture frame above the hall.
The two of them looked at it and saw that half of the picture frame had been put together.
The portrait appears to be a rotting human head.
There is also a bleeding hole on the forehead that looks like an eye. It looks very ferocious!
"What is the end of the misty world?"
Ning Qiushui asked, and the boy shrugged.
"Then I don't know."
"After all, none of us have been to that place."
"In addition, don't blame us for being too indifferent... After all, you also know that in this world, death is common. If you really make a close friend, and he dies in the Blood Gate You must feel very sad about the world behind it.”
When the young man said this, his expression was a little depressed.
"Was the hut before..."
Ning Qiushui seemed to understand something, but before he could fully ask, the young man nodded.
"Just before you guys came, about half a month ago, Uncle Yan's best friend, Uncle Mang... died behind the Blood Gate."
"And Sister Xiaoxiao's best friend Gardenia... also died for her love."
"So actually everyone is not in a good mood."
The two of them recalled the heavy atmosphere in the hall when they first entered the hut, and they could immediately understand it.
"Okay, it's time to eat soon. After eating, if you don't want to stay here anymore, you can go to the stop outside the villa and wait for the bus."
"When it's time for you to enter the Blood Gate to perform your second mission in a week, the bus will come to pick you up in advance..."
At the dining table, the four of them sat in silence, engrossed in eating.
"To be honest, your cooking skills are really not that good..."
Liu Chengfeng took a few bites and couldn't help but complain.
Meng Jun, who was cooking, raised his head and gave Liu Chengfeng a cold look:
"You can throw it away if you don't like it, or you can make it yourself."
Liu Chengfeng was a carefree person with a bad temper. He originally wanted to fight back, but when he looked at Meng Jun, he shrank his neck.
Meng Jun's eyes were too scary.
At that moment, Liu Chengfeng even felt as if there was a knife on his neck!
He was almost certain that this man named Meng Jun... had killed someone before!
However, Liu Chengfeng was not one to suffer the consequences of being dumb. He scratched his neck and said:
“Just do it yourself!”
"I'll leave it here. From today on, I, Liu Chengfeng, will be the head chef here. From now on, as long as I'm here, you are not allowed to enter the kitchen. Whatever you want to eat, I will cook it for you!"
He said the most cowardly words in a strong tone.
Ning Qiushui couldn't help but smile.
During the meal, he learned that there were four old people left in this shack. Liangyan was the head of the shack and the first person to enter the shack.
The boy's name is Tian Xun, an orphan who lives with his sister.
Meng Jun is Liangyan's best friend in the outside world. He was a soldier in the past and fought on the battlefield on the border.
The only voluptuous beauty Bai Xiaoxiao is very mysterious. No one knows her identity. They only know that she is... very powerful in the outside world.
During this period, Ning Qiushui once again talked about the female ghost in red inside their first bloody door. Unexpectedly, Meng Jun and Tian Xun remained silent after listening.
"No...why don't you speak?"
Seeing the two of them being so silent, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help shouting.
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Jun picked up the dinner plate and walked towards the kitchen.
"I'm stuffed."
He said lightly.
But both of them were able to detect the change in Meng Jun's attitude towards them.
This change is very sudden...
It seems that the spring that has just warmed up suddenly fell into the cold winter again.
